Plans: B-day @ Brother’s, Rheinwood Open Meeting
Fruchtbarkeit/Saturday, we pray to Sibba, and to Ing-Fro, lighting green candles (for fertility):
Sibba, Great Goddess of Fertility and Family, wife of Donar; let us see you in all the growing things that sustain our lives. Help us look beyond the packaging and promotion, to the richness of the Earth from which all bounty comes. When ordinary eyes see only corn, let us see your golden hair hid in its silk. When others see only bread, let us see the grain, beyond that, your smile and laughter. Feed our might and main, Holy Sibba, that we may do our work in the world. WE GIVE YOU A MOST HEART-FELT HAIL, SIBBA, as we honor the Sibba that resides in us all!
Ing-Frô, you’re the Great God of Fridu (all-encompassing safety and protection), Ar
(peace, good seasons), the good harvest and prosperity: you are indeed the god of this World. When the day to day wears us down remind us of pleasures and joys. Help us recall the wonderful excesses that brought our lives into being and which sustain the human spirit during good times and bad. Without you, there would be no life and certainly little delight. Thank you, Ing-Frô, for the rushing life spirit and the eternal play of passions that make our lives fruitful. WE GIVE YOU A MOST HEART-FELT HAIL, ING-FRÔ, as we honor the Ing-Frô that resides in all of us!

A fourteenth I know: if I needs must number
the Powers to the people of men,
I know all the nature of gods and of elves
which none can know untaught.
Interpretation: Life experiences (Berkana)(Laf) all around!
Outcome: Toby was well-behaved on his 1-mile walk.
Took down all of outside and MOST of the inside Yule decorations. I’m going to leave up a couple. Okay, so Essie probably trashed the Yule tree. She can have it for a while. It’s her jungle-gym.
Man, I better take a nap…

Worked a bit more on my Final Wishes and Living Will
Good online time
Birthday party at my brother’s house for his guardian/granddaughter turned out well enough. I don’t think there as many showed up as he thought would. While there, Steve told me of his granddaughter’s mother having another child. This poor child my brother of which has guardianship, is a castaway. At first, my brother was supposed to care for the child until her mother was ready to come back to reclaim her. With this child’s mother having yet another (3rd) child, I suggested to my brother he might as well get ready for the long-haul with his grandchild/guardian. I’m just betting this child wont be reclaimed. My brother and his wife are indeed this child’s nurturer (Berkana) as this child experiences life (Laf).
A bit of a hodge-podge Rheinwood open meeting, but we muddled through it. To start, I missed the Mt Hope exit…THREE TIMES, which frustrated me because it made me late. When I got there (late) nothing was prepared; the girls were out getting pizza, which made it later. By the time they got there my energy level was already depleting. I just didn’t have it in me to stay too late.

Comments: WOW! I just noticed…Sibba, Ing-Fro, Nirdu…an EXCELLENT Day of Fertility with these prayers to the Wanâ! I need to be more mindful of days like this.
